(164/180) 346 - HelpServer: right hand frame (toc link) in URL

InfoViewer when configured with the HelpInfoViewer can restore the previous help page that was viewed next time it is started. This is because the URL it must show already "includes" the TOC pane (the option to get rid of the TOC pane is a GUI setting).

With a regular web browser, however, there is a URL for the frames version of the page, and no way to bookmark help pages that will when restored, bring you to a particular help page on the right frame, that ALSO has the TOC frame on the left.

Is there a way to encode the URL of the HelpServer so it also includes info about what URL to show in the right hand frame? It would be nice to be able to bookmark those kinds of pages.

2016-08-11 21:04:53.024000 kerik-sf	Cool. I've broken the HelpServer reflection code in [r24495]. I will commit a jEdit 5.3.1+ version this week-end.
